Pours amber with no head and only a faint lacing around the glass. Smells tarte and sweet with some citrussy touches. Tastes of sweet caramel, molasses, some dark fruit, boozy on the finish.

Bottle. Frothy white almost no head. Orange colour. Moderate malty and hoppy and very vinius aroma. Light sweet and bitter flavor. Honey, toffee and orange notes. Slightly acetic! Average finish and creamy palate. Not well-balanced beer.

Hazy dark amber with floaties and a tiny short lasting head. Sweet vinious aroma with hops, ripe fruits and caramel. Sweet flavor with notes of alcohol, caramel, oxidation.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with small particles of sediment floating around under a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of fruit as well as light notes of wood and oxidation - due to 2½ years of storing. The flavor is very sweet and very fruity combined with medium notes of prunes, and again a slight oxidized note and notes of alcohol, which is felt on the tongue. Thanks BelJohansen for sharing this.

courtesy of fiulijn - cloudy and unappetizing reddish-copper colour, absolutely no foam; woody, strong aroma of licorice, plum, caramel and marzipan; low carbonation and full-bodied; the finish is slightly elusive leaving notes of caramel and wood ... and a solid alcohol kick
